The Story Hunters

By Karen McGoldrick

Emmaline Sparks describes herself as a story hunter. She has made a name for herself as a novelist by hunting for and finding the stories of the powerless, that the powerful don't want told.

Abby Woods wants to become a story hunter, too, like her grandma.

Abby thinks her grandma and her dog, a black German Shepherd, are really something more. Maybe even a witch and a wolf. Her grandmother isn't like a normal grandmother, and her dog isn't like a normal dog. But even if they aren't really a witch and a wolf, they should at least be that in a story, a story that Abby intends to write.

Abby knows how her story starts, but not how it ends. And she isn't sure how to put a dragon in, but she knows there will be one.

As her sixth-grade school year ends, Abby is studying hard so she can win the spelling bee at "camp-ship-'em-off." Emmaline is helping her. But Emmaline is also trying to help Abby make some changes so she can make a start fresh at Junior High in the fall and not repeat the mistakes she's made during the year. She can start by making those changes at camp.

But a returned deposit from the camp means a change of plans, and not just for Abby.

Abby doesn't mind. She's going to be a story hunter. And she knows just whose story she will be hunting.
